A few weeks ago, Erica sent me a message.
She said, 'I have no strength and feel I should start some weight lifting (obviously light!).'
Erica turns 70 in October 💗
Six weeks later, she's regularly joining our kettlebell classes twice a week, and honestly, she's doing brilliantly.
What I love most isn't how much weight she's lifting or how quickly she's progressing (although her jumping jacks are pretty inspirational!). It's that she decided to begin ✨
Starting something new can feel daunting at any age. It's easy to think you need to be fitter, stronger, more confident, or somehow more 'ready' before you walk through the door.
The truth is, most people don't feel ready when they start. They simply decide to give it a go.
They take that first step and, over time, start to fall in love with the way exercise makes them feel - stronger, fitter, more energetic, and with a quiet confidence in what their body is capable of.
Not because of one perfect workout, but because they keep showing up.
And that's what I admire about Erica... She decided to start - and she kept going 💫
